Review of programs that allow you to send SMS with substitution of the sender's number.

How to send SMS from another number using an operator

At the moment, you can only send a message with a changed number to your interlocutor to those people who use . This service is called “Sending SMS from the site,” and to use it you need to go to the operator’s official website.

In order to send such a message, the user will need to indicate the phone number of the person to whom the message needs to be sent, as well as the text. In addition, you will need to enter a security code. When received, the sender's name will be displayed to the interlocutor as “InternetSMS”.

It should be noted that in this way the user can send messages no longer than 170 characters.

Creating an anonymous SMS in the ePochta SMS service

Many operators insist on registering the sender's name. This is done to prevent SMS fraud and reduce the number of unscrupulous senders. However, it remains possible to use alternative channels, where the given name is replaced by a numeric or alphabetic name.

Using the service, in the sender field you can specify both a phone number and a word (max. length 11 characters in Latin letters). It all depends on your imagination. And the length of the message is not limited - if the message is too long, it will be divided into several separate SMS, which will look like a single whole on the recipient’s phone.

How to delete a message on Android

Usually a huge number of messages come to your phone. If you leave what you don’t need, it will soon be difficult to find what you need. To avoid this situation, you need to regularly review received SMS and delete unnecessary ones.

To do this, perform the following steps:

1. You need to go to “Messages”.
2. By going to the list of received SMS, you can see their list. If messages have not been deleted for a long time, the size of the list can be impressive. You need to find one of those that needs to be removed.
3. You need to make a long press. You need to wait until the cart image appears at the bottom of the screen.
4. Then you need to tap on the basket. After this it will be deleted.

If you need to delete several SMS, then after the trash can appears, you need to tap on each of the unnecessary ones, and then click on the image of the trash.

The video shows how to delete messages:

There is another removal method. When the list of available SMS messages is displayed, a menu consisting of a horizontal row of icons will be shown at the bottom of the screen. In it you need to tap on the menu icon. When it opens, you need to select “Delete everything”. In this case, after this procedure there will not be a single message left in the Inbox. This option makes sense in cases where there is no need to store such information.

The main reasons for cleaning are usually the following:

1. I'm tired of spam from all kinds of advertising messages. What usually happens is that most of them were sent by the mobile provider.
2. The text contains confidential information that should be kept separately and in a safe place. Therefore, the data is transferred to another location and the SMS is deleted.
3. To make it easier to find the data that is important. At the same time, you won’t have to scroll through hundreds of unnecessary SMS messages.
4. To avoid loading memory.

Regarding the last argument, it should be noted that it is more psychological than real. Modern smartphones have sufficient resources to save emails. It is generally believed that the message limit is limited to one thousand.

In the settings, you can specify where exactly to store received letters: on a SIM card or in the phone memory. In the first case, space is limited, in the second - practically none.

Method 2: Group

Another trick that can be effectively used in organizing a chat with a single participant (you) is to create a WhatsApp group, and then exclude all participants from it except the creator (administrator), that is, the messenger account that belongs to you.

1. Open WhatsApp on any device and proceed to create a group chat.

   

What's the result?

In conclusion, we also note such a specialized service as self-deleting messages. You can create them using the Privnote website. The general principle of its operation is as follows: you create messages in the site interface, set the option to destroy after reading, set a password and send the interlocutor a link. The recipient clicks on the link, enters the password, reads the message, which then self-destructs.

Sending SMS through online services

Online portals for sending messages from a computer ceased to be in demand after this function appeared in personal accounts on operator websites. However, some of them are still working now. Here is a list of those currently available for use:

• https://smscat.ru/
• https://smste.ru/
• https://mysmsbox.ru/
• https://ossinfo.ru
• https://ipsms.ru/sendsms.php

Sending SMS through the mobile operator's website

One of the easiest and fastest ways to access sending a message to your phone. Mobile communication providers have long opened personal accounts for their subscribers on their official websites. Your personal account provides information about tariffs, rules of use, additional services, various promotions, etc.

In the list of services you will see the function of sending SMS to your phone from your computer. The advantage of this method is its simplicity, accessibility and free use. The only negative is the limited number of characters in one SMS and paid messages for sending to other operators.

Important: we will not provide instructions for each site, as this is done simply, without special knowledge, so look carefully at where this service is located in your account.

Bulk SMS mailing

To send SMS on a large scale to a phone from a computer, they use Internet resources special for this. They are needed to advertise a company, business, or any promotions. One of these sites is called “prostor-sms.com”. Here you will find all the necessary information about the newsletter and the price list. Free use is provided only for the first 50 days of testing.

Method 3: Internet service

The two techniques described above certainly allow you to solve the problem of creating correspondence with yourself effectively, but calling them elegant and truly convenient can only be a stretch. In an attempt to satisfy the request of their users for the need to introduce into the service functionality similar to that discussed in this article, the creators of the messenger propose using a specialized Internet service - Whatsapp.Any.Do .

At its core, it is a system of delayed reminders. It is assumed that the user of the messenger creates tasks within the Any.do service and then, after a specified time, receives a message in his WhatsApp about the need to perform a particular action or the occurrence of any events. The service’s services are provided on a paid basis, by subscription, but it is possible to evaluate the benefits of “Reminders” during the trial period absolutely free.

1. Install the application on your mobile device Any.do. You can download the solution from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store - use the solution that is suitable for your smartphone OS.

   

2. Launch the Eni.du application, following its instructions, register in the system and sign up for a trial subscription to use it.

3. Go to the “Settings” section of Any.do, tap the name of the “Integrations” category (in the iOS version – “Integrations”). On the screen that opens, tap “WhatsApp”.

   

4. Next, enter the phone number you use as your login in the messenger in the field on the screen and then click “Submit.”

   

5. Wait for an SMS from the sender “infoSMS” to arrive at the phone ID specified in the step above. Open it and enter the verification code from the message in the appropriate field on the Eni.du application screen, then tap “Verify”.

   

6. After almost instant verification, linking your account in the information exchange system to the reminder service will be completed. Creating tasks, notifications about the need to complete which will be sent to your WhatsApp, of course, can be done in the Any.do application, as well as on the service’s website, but from the point of view of the task being solved in this article, it is more logical to use a bot in the messenger.

   

7. Open WhatsApp. The app's CHATS tab now reveals the title "Any.do" - open this chat to provide directions to the bot.

   

8. Next, you need to master the principle of adding tasks through a bot, and in fact, messages that you will receive on WhatsApp at the time you need. It's very simple:
   While on the chat screen with the Any.do bot, write in the message input field and send the name of the event about the occurrence of which you want to receive a message in the messenger.



9. Next, enter the date and time at which you want to receive a message from the bot. This data is entered in the following format: DD.MM.YY HH:MM. Send information to chat. Having received a response from the bot indicating acceptance of the task for execution, you can exit the correspondence and close WhatsApp.



10. That's all - in the future, if the need arises, send messages to the Eni.du bot according to the principle described above, and as a result of its work you will receive timely notifications about a particular event or reminders about the need to perform any actions.

    

If you decide not to use the benefits of WhatsApp.Any.do, and/or you need to stop using the bot, do not forget to cancel your subscription in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store!
